I’m really looking forward to this footy boot. No matter what Nike try they can never get close to the preds, they are without doubt the best boot about.

hmm want to see them now ? well check out the autumn/winter catalogue 09…them seem to have leaked both colourways…and they £134.99….cheaper than the superfly but still over priced for a predator boot

Fantastic news, can’t wait for the release.

Liverpoool fan – adidas confirmed the name Predator X last month. The ‘Trustrike’ was just a development/project name

keven & -said??? i can’t wait till you see what technologies are in this boot, who helped develope it etc Then you will see that X=10th is the best boot ever produced by adidas, that is saying something because adidas boots are the best by far at the moment.

Over the weekend I saw blackout versions of the predator_X in the Dutch League and in the EPL.

OMG they look terrible!
what happened? somebody found a lost design-idea from the late nineties? i better buy a third pair of them powerswerves (even though they have the goofy seethrough-rubber mistake

I have never fancied the fold-over tongue and so this pred is just absolutely screaming at me to buy it. The rubber vamps look improved without looking overdone and it just looks like a nicely fitting boot. Can. Not. Wait.

When I first saw them a couple months ago I liked them, I love the feel, and I think this one will have more swerve off the outside of the boot.
Even the Absolions look good this year.

shut up channo

predator is the best power boot. Lasers and constructs suck, they only copy the features of predators like rubber elements, heel counter kangoo leather and so on. The only feature developed by Nike was the assymetric lacing.

I was hoping that the truestrikes were a joke and just to get everone off what adidas was really going to release..

Thos in the pictures look like the boot released 10 years ago.. is that what they going for?

I can’t wait for the Predator X to come out. However, looking back at the history of the Adidas Predator Boots I ask for one wish. Bring the Predator Mania TRX-FG back. By far the best boot ever made in my opinion. Just reinforce the outside of the foot leathering and there ya go. See what you can do footy boots.. Oh how I miss my manias.

Rumour has it the photos above are fakes released by Adidas themselves to throw people off what the actual boot is!

the new predators look 20 years out of date.

I am a loyal reader of this site. I’ve only commented on here once. Yet, I feel that I MUST now.
Over the weekend I went to a local soccer store (soccer: Yes – I am American and live in Salt Lake City). I found these already on the shelves. For starters, they could not possibly be any more hideous. They are atrocious. Whomever designed the aesthetics of the shoe should re-think their career path. Having said that…
I have never, ever put on a boot that felt more natural (especially on a first-time-fit) in my entire life. I am going to buy these TODAY! These boots are incredible. You will feel a boot that fits perfectly. It is incredible to see how comfortable these boots are – really, I mean that. So, if you’re a player that is willing to sacrifice some visual flair in return for unsurpassed fit and comfort – buy these.

These will look awesome in Black/Gold/White, or in the Champions League Colorway, but the white yellow, black aren’t that great. I want to see a bold colorway from Adidas, like the Cyan f50i!!!!

What the heck have adidas done to these boots look like they’ve been shredded then put back together they look like garbage never buying these

what has happened to the predators that combine all the boots from the past they looked rather nice?

i think they looked stunning, simple, a bit old school yet functional..
maybe the designer thought since its predator’s tenth anniversary, why don’t they go with the “old-school, retro-looks”theme..
it maybe looked different but from my opinion, since i’m a designer, these boots are the best designed predator boots since the accelerator back in 98.
It’s completely different from all the trends in football boots these days and its quite refreshing, adidas made a brave move with the new predator design and they did a great job. if u say these boots are hideous, u should see nike’s new total 90 laser.. ugly..

Raka’ makes a very good point because the Laser III’s are horrendous. I’m a little dubious over this new “Taurus” leather but having said that, they look very comfortable (they have the wrap-around tongue from the adipure II’s) and I’m sure that the technology does everything that it promises. What gets me though is how many people here care about the LOOK of the boot. Are we really forgetting what football is about here people? It’s a sport not a fashion parade. Besides, I’m sure adidas will eventually release a TONNE of colourways for this boot just like they did with the Powerswerves

To answer your first question: I’m pretty sure I know which pictures you’re talking about and yes I’m also fairly certain that they are the new Adipure III’s due to be released February next year.

To answer your second; they don’t have a Powerpulse chamber with a shifting powder in it but instead this new Powerspine thing (I’m not sure how it works) which still has the same function and is supposed to generate more power than the previous models

They kind of look like adipures but with more features although these look shocking. But i bet they will have the best performance to date by any preadator.

These look absolutely amazing to me. I want them but I can’t see myself shelling out 130 pounds on boots when I have 2 perfect pairs. I know what I’m getting next though.

At first sight, i didn´t like these ones.Plus, i feel bad for my predators powerswerve cause now they´re outdated.I don´t like this model but i know that player´s performance will enhance with these boots.
Does anyone know where i can see pictures of the adipure III or something?

The features look nice but they aren’t very fashionable!

i think the design of the new predator are fine. form follow function probably is the main idea behind the design. i think it’s well designed, a breakthrough, and a bold statement from adidas to mark their tenth predator generation, a very innovative, popular, and best selling boots ever. its clearly ahead of the trends.. looking to the competitors like total 90, puma v-kon etc (they haven’t released their new design) i think predator_x will be on top of the market and lots of player will change their boots into these new preds (iaquinta, and so on)
^^

Adidas boots have been going down in looks (it looks like predator cups) but up in technology, and the advertisment of the predator x up the top shows a powerswerve boot, And finally, Why did they just release a new Powerswerve colourway just before this came out?

it looks ok but the pred before looked better. stiil, compare it to ctr360, t90 and tiempo it looked a million miles better.

WTF!!!!

it should have better design….

pooooooooorrrrrrreeeeeeeessssssttttt adidas i’ve ever seen!!!!

hope adidas quickly make a better design

but i like with the technology

its looks great.i like it…

these are sooo siiicck.I’m liking the technology too. Does it still have some type of powerpulse in it tho?
